CURVES_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_FOR_POLYMER

CURVES_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_FOR_POLYMER worker is added to Workflows to Scale Effective Stress vs Strain for polymers.

Inputs

1. Test Eng Stress Vs Strain in basic tab.
2. Sim Eng Stress vs Strain
3. Simulation Effective Stress vs Strain Input
4. Simulation Effective Stress vs Strain Output
5. Reference effective Stress vs Strain

Worker Modal

Worker *CURVE/CURVES_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_POLYMER has new input called ‘Type of Peak Match’ in Workflows.​

New input Young’s modulus is added to *CURVE_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_FOR_POLYMER worker in Workflows to compute the slope of the curve.​

Example - Overlay of Input Curves

Reference Curve Example

Overlay of Output with Input curve and Reference Curve

CURVES_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_FOR_POLYMER worker now scales both X and Y axes in the output.​

Early necking and late necking

*CURVE_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_FOR_POLYMER worker now treats early spike in input curve and gives output when peak type is set to ‘Match true necking point and post neck’ in Workflows.​

*CURVE_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_FOR_POLYMER worker now treats late spike in input curve and gives output when peak type is set to ‘Match true necking point and post neck’ in Workflows.​

Brittle Materials

CURVE_SCALE_EFFECTIVE_STRESS_STRAIN_FOR_POLYMER worker now scales brittle material curve input and gives output when peak type is set to ‘Match True Necking Point and Post-Neck’ in Workflows.​
